Idlewild - Century After Century

Century After Century

Since your breathing, is it all that a space can fill?
So just by looking in, I will be looking still
You find and follow stories well
you are naked except for a newspaper, the headline telling me
That fortune favours the brave
I have been known to be that brave
What I want is on its way out
All I needed was an easier way to stay
Walking around the city as the light fades (is it all that you remain?)
Imthinking about each promise that I have ever made
But I know what they wi will never say, I know what they wi will never say
Century after Century they remain
And if I read to remember that the entire Earth is outside this room
So close the windows, keep the curtains shut forever
And if I need to remember that the entire Earth is outside this room
So close the windows, close the windows
Isnt it romantic, to be romantic
When you dont understand what you love
Or if a word like that couls ever mean anything
When what you want is on its way out
I didnt hear cheerleading for creati have writers
And your cheekbones dont taste of anything at all
Its on its way out, its just an easier way to stay
Talking about a city that the light made (is it all that you remain?)
Its the same story thats been told
But its been stories that dont fade
I know what they wi will never say, I know what they wi will never say
Century after Century they remain
Is it all that you remain?
